When is Holika Dahan 2020 in Ipameri?
Holika Dahan muhurat: what time?
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 01:08 Mon–02:09 Mon.
Why is Holika Dahan on Sun 8 Mar in Ipameri?
Holika Dahan is on Sun 8 Mar, in bhadra’s tail (puchha), 01:08 Mon–02:09 Mon.
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 01:08 Mon–02:09 Mon.
Chaturdashi until 18:34, inside pradosha; then Purnima. Purnima: 18:34 to 14:47 Mon.
Purnima ended at 14:47; pradosha is Pratipada.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Holika is burnt in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset, outside bhadra. Purnima runs from 18:34 on Sun 8 Mar to 14:47 on Mon 9 Mar, so it touches only Sunday’s pradosha (18:32–20:52). Bhadra lasts until 04:42 Mon, past nishitha, so the Dharmasindhu allows its tail, the puchha. Tithika places the puchha at 01:08 Mon–02:09 Mon, scaled from its ghatis: Tithika’s convention.
